ChatGPT May Be Eroding Critical Thinking Skills,

According to a New MIT Study

 

Does ChatGPT harm critical thinking abilities? A new study from researchers at MIT’s Media Lab has returned some concerning results.

 

The study divided 54 subjects – 18 to 39 year-olds from the Boston area – into three groups, and asked them to write several SAT essays using OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s search engine, and nothing at all, respectively. Researchers used an EEG to record the writers’ brain activity across 32 regions, and found that of the three groups, ChatGPT users had the lowest brain engagement and “consistently underperformed at neural, linguistic, and behavioral levels.” Over the course of several months, ChatGPT users got lazier with each subsequent essay, often resorting to copy-and-paste by the end of the study.

Climate change is happening

 

Enunciado 4648900-1

 

Climate change is already affecting every region on Earth. Changes in rain cycles, rising sea levels, melting glaciers, a warming ocean, and more frequent and intense extreme weather events are now impacting millions of people.

 

Climate change can affect our health, ability to grow food, housing, safety and work. Some of us are more vulnerable to climate impacts, such as people living in small islands and in poorer countries. Because of sea-level rise, for example, whole communities have had to move to other places. In the future, the number of people displaced by climate change is expected to go up.

 

The changes in the climate are everywhere, rapid and intensifying, and some of the changes, such as sea-level rise or melting ice sheets, are irreversible over hundreds to thousands of years.

Killing two birds with one stone

 

Enunciado 4648897-1

 

This post will cover some common ways of talking about doing things successfully. Informally, it is very common to say that we “get something done”. When something is completed successfully and often more easily than you expected, you might exclaim, “Job done!” More formally, we can say we “achieve” or “accomplish” something, especially when it takes a lot of effort. In informal English, when people achieved something extremely well, we can say they “smashed it”. If someone succeeded easily in something difficult, such as an exam, the person “sailed through” it.

 

Finally, if you are lucky enough to achieve two things with the same action, you could use the expression “kill two birds with one stone”. I hope this post has fulfilled its aim and that you have managed to learn some new words to help you sail through your exams!

For decades, the dry season in the Amazon rainforest has been getting drier. A new study found that about 75 percent of the decrease in rainfall is directly related to deforestation. The study, in Nature Communications, also found that tree mortality was partly responsible for increased heat across the Amazon. Since 1985, the hottest days in the Amazon have warmed by about 2 degrees Celsius. About 16 percent of that increase, the researchers found, was because of deforestation.

 

The Amazon rainforest is often called the lungs of the planet because its trees help to regulate the global climate by absorbing planet-warming carbon dioxide. But decades of forest destruction have recently changed that script, and parts of the region have become producers of greenhouse gases.
